Preparing to Export

Our Preparing to Export programme is for businesses new to or in the early stages of their exporting journey. 

This introductory service helps companies prepare to export. Get information on market analysis, international finance and support for market entry. We'll help you to prepare a practical export plan to help your business grow in new markets, and you'll get the help you need to put the theory into practice.
